4.2 Brick (have preloader .29 and nand backup)

I'll start by apologizing if this exact case has been mentioned before, but these forums are hard to search due to ambiguity in the titles!

Moving on, I was at 4.1U, no issues. Wanted to updated to 4.2U and do the trucha stuff (successfully followed the tutorial once for another wii and went fine) . Anyway somehow I'm stuck out of the system. It says "System files corrupt" on boot, but as mentioned I do have preloader .29 that I can boot into and I do have a nand backup.

I followed the steps in another thread that uninstalled/reinstalled HBC then tried to run wad manager and everything is fine until that last step, wad manager shows up in HBC but gives only a black screen when run.
